Worst Halloween costume ever? No kids, it’s Mystery, the elusive “pick-up
artist”/douchebag-you-kinda-maybe-would-sleep-with if you met him in real life
(according to an un-scientific poll we just conducted among, um, three women).
Love him,
hate him, want to knock those silly goggles off his damn forehead…either way, he’s
back for a new season of VH1’s The
Pick-Up Artist. Only this time—there’s
a twist!
Sadly, it
doesn’t involve goggles being twisted around Mystery's neck, as this promo shot
shows.
No, this
twist involves a lady wing-person.
Or, “wing-girl.” (Why there are wing-men and then wing-girls, we don’t know. It’s probably akin to insulting a drunk woman
so that she’ll make out with you.) We’ll let VH1
explain:
Based
on the tremendous viewer response to the series The Pickup Artist, VH1 has once again teamed up with world
renowned pickup guru Mystery to help guide nine new “socially awkward” students
overcome their biggest fears - meeting women. As we saw last season, Mystery
has developed a foolproof formula for these men to follow, whether they’re in a
bar, club or coffee shop. Through his various teachings and in-the-field tests,
Mystery will prepare these men with the skills they need to overcome their
shyness and confidence issues in the real world.
The Pickup Artist 2 brings a new twist to the show, as
Mystery and Season 1 wing-man and fellow pickup artist Matador are joined by
new wing-girl
Tara. Viewers may remember Tara as Season 1’s kissing coach. In this second season she will
expand her role by adding a female perspective. Tara will serve as full time wing-girl
to Mystery and act as a confidant for the contestants.
Set your
DVR! The Pickup Artist 2 premieres on VH1 on Sunday,
October 12 at 10:00 PM.
We’ll be
waiting for Season 3, when maybe they’ll let an actual wing-woman join the cast…or when they finally televise Mystery getting kicked in the balls. You know it's happened...
